Oscar Bolaños was born in Costa Rica where he obtained a Bachelor of Computer Science. In 2010, he moved to Switzerland to pursue a master’s degree. He has been interested in photography since he was a kid, although “my career ended abruptly when I drowned by mistake my family’s camera in the ocean.” It was not until years later as an adult that he picked up a camera again. Today, he uses photography as a window into culture and as a way to keep his creativity alive, allowing him to pursue what gets his attention. (Photo shot in Hanoi, Vietnam 2018.
